A race condition can occur between competing snippets, like snippets based on the same environment, or snippets that signal a winning strategy but can also stop executing.
Only Conditional Hiding Snippets are raceable.

A snippet wins the race, and all others are flagged as losers. A registered callback to stop losing snippets from executing is then invoked.
